Stunning footage from earlier today, when the new Kilauea eruption covered the USGS Webcam 3, which is situated in the Halemaʻumaʻu crater near the southern rim of the much larger Kilauea caldera.

But it's not very far off.

This ACIP meeting is an epidemiological crime scene.

99% of all biopics are terrible in a deadly dull, by-the-numbers way and that 1% that are wonderful are just enough to give people hope. Cursed genre.

Good evening. We estimate that between 4.2 and 7.6 million people turned out for the No Kings Day demonstrations held around the country on Saturday. This makes Oct 18 very likely the biggest single-day U.S. protest event since 1970. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/second-no-...
